THE COLORED VOTERS.
Mysterious Movement in Regard to Holding
Convention in Indianapolis.
Pittsburg Dispatch.

Pittsburg Dispatch.
The report that convention of colored voters
will be held at Indiana olis in June is little
premature. That one will be held prior to the
national conventions next year is possible, but
the call for the Indianapolis conclave is shrouded
with 80 much mystery that colored men are not
disposed to indorse it.
1t appears that gentleman, who figures as
the Secretary of the colored Republican COM
mittee of Indiana, has sent to individual colored
men circular letters informing them of the pros
pective convention and desiring their presence
delegates. Upon the principle that delegates
are elected by the people. the gentlemen in yited
feel unwilling to put themselves in a compro-
missing position by attending the convention as
self constituted delegates. The leading colored
journals of the country, while they will not in
dorse the INDIANAPOLIS meeting. assert the i'm
portance of convention before the Republican
convention to nominate President and Vice
President is held they do not think it is wise
on general principles. to guarantee to support
the Republican party in the future they have
in the past. unless something more tangible than
the old hackneyed promises is guaranteed them.
Again the friendly disposition of President
Cleveland toward the co:ored people is making
a large number of the colored voters through
out the country more favorably disposed
ward him, and it is very probable that If he is
renominated, they will support him. A move
ment is now on foot at Washington to issue
bonafde call for colored convention. which
shall be attended by delegates duly elect
ed by the people. Rather than destroy the
effect of the Indianapolis call, a compromise
may be effected by which the leading colored
men in the respective States may be requested
to call State conventions, at which shall be
elected delegates for the July conclavs in the
West.

Last Saturday w. f. Jackson. Instructor
of the Sacramento School of Design, went
up to Soda Springs to make some sketches
while the snow was still on the ground,
Before returning to Summit Station a Sc
we're snow-storm arose, which necessitated
his remaining over at the Springs On the
following day the storm continued, and
Mr.. Jackson reports that a most novel
sight was witnessed at Bonner Lake. Dur
ing the storm, which came in gusts, the
lake was alternately darkened by flving
storm-clouds and again for few moments
lighted up by the suns rays, only to be
darkened up by other clouds. The effect
was particularly striking to one unaccus-
toned to such sights. Mr.. jackson also
reports that the springs are flowing freely,
and old springs that have been dried up for
many years have burst forth with renewed
activity. On the other hand. Steamboat
Springs. in Nevada, have completely dried.
At Meadow Lake, a gentleman who was
there at the time, reports that on the night
of the recent earthquake loud and deaf
ening explosion was heard, as of the firing
of large guns near at hand, accompanied
by violent mblings-sharp shocks.
The driving of Steamboat Springs and the
reopening of the Soda Springs the " ma
tives credit to the earthquake. which is
thought to have had its central location in
that vicinity.
